Developing and implementing smart energy policies using clean, renewable sources of energy, particularly in those nations with the highest per capita energy consumption.

Over the past 150 years, humans have moved from an agrarian to an industrial economy. That shift has been accompanied by many technologies that have the effect of poisoning resources humans need to live. The two most dramatic are the impacts of global warming due to CO2 discharges into the atmosphere and radioactive contamination of areas around failed nuclear facilities, such as Chernobyl, Fukushima Daichi, Three Mile Island and Hannaford, Washington. Activities to extract energy-rich minerals, such as mountaintop mining and deep ocean oil drilling, destroy entire ecosystems. Human society needs to move globally to clean, renewable sources of energy. This move necessarily means society also needs to operate more efficiently, and implement energy conservation measures in every way possible.
